organic layer 104 formed by the following process. PAA is amphiphile and easy to bond the first hydrophilicinorganic layer 103. MMA is a hydrophobic and organic polymer and is not easy to bond the first hydrophilicinorganic layer 103. When the printing ink droplets are added to the firstinorganic layer 103, the PAA in the droplets without the photopolymerization will be easily spread on the surface. A PAA hydrophilic end of PMMA-PAA formed by the photopolymerization closes to the firstinorganic layer 103. A PMMA hydrophobic end of PMMA-PAA is away from the firstinorganic layer 103. The spray technology utilizes hydrophilic PAA to easily spread the ink on the firstinorganic layer 103 to decrease cavities in the firstorganic layer 104. Therefore, due to the PMMA-PAAorganic layer 104, the OLED display panel encapsulation structure in the present invention has better isolation abilities from water and oxygen. - The first
organic layer 104 is formed on the firstinorganic layer 103. Then, the secondinorganic layer 105 is formed on the firstorganic layer 104. The secondinorganic layer 105 is made of inorganic materials such as silicon nitride, silicon dioxide or aluminum oxide and so on. A thickness of the secondinorganic layer 105 is same as a thickness of the firstinorganic layer 103. Preferably, the thickness of the secondinorganic layer 105 is 0.1-2 μm such as 1 μm by utilizing plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or atomic layer deposition method. The firstorganic layer 104 is fully covered by the secondinorganic layer 105. A periphery of the secondinorganic layer 105 and a periphery of the firstinorganic layer 103 connect with each other to seal the firstorganic layer 104 by two inorganic layers and to prevent water and oxygen from penetrating into the firstorganic layer 104. - Referring to
FIG. 2 , an OLED display device comprises asubstrate 101, a thin-filmtransistor driver layer 201, an OLEDluminescent layer 202, and an OLED display panel encapsulation structure. The OLED display panel encapsulation structure comprises a firstinorganic layer 103, a firstorganic layer 104 and a secondinorganic layer 105 stacked with one another. Theorganic layer 104 is an ambipolar layer. The ambipolar layer is an organic copolymer. Molecules of the organic copolymer have hydrophilic groups and hydrophobic groups. The OLED display device has a similar structure as the embodiment of the OLED display panel encapsulation structure described above. - The present invention provides an OLED display panel encapsulation structure. By utilizing the organic layer as an ambipolar layer to decrease the cavities in the organic layer. Thus, the organic layer is able to isolate water and oxygen better from the OLED device and to reduce oxidation risk of OLED device and result in longer product life of the OLED device.
- The present disclosure has been described with a preferred embodiment thereof. The preferred embodiment is not intended to limit the present disclosure, and it is understood that many changes and modifications to the described embodiment can be carried out without departing from the scope and the spirit of the disclosure that is intended to be limited only by the appended claims.
